market and is selling, we can also offer you the opportunity to do
an offset run, greatly reducing your cost per book.
So try
one of our POD programs along with a distribution and
marketing/promotion package that is second to none, and then talk to
us about printing in quantity.
There are so many reasons to
publish your book with Llumina Press. We offer a reputation for
publishing quality books, personal service, the best author
discounts in the industry and the highest royalties (ours are based
on list price). In addition, we’re the only POD company offering bookstore returnability through Ingram (and no loss
